Truth is, itโs the request of at least 80% of the ladies who come to me. โฃ

Last week, I shared a bit more about how โ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ๐จโ is essentially us wanting to build more muscle, and then be lean enough to feel โ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฅโ. โฃ
โฃ
And I always have to be the bearer of bad news in sharing that we really have to pick one at a time to focus on. โฃ

โฃ
If your priority right now is building muscle and youโre eating at maintenance it doesnโt mean you can never lose weight again. โฃ
โฃ
Or, if youโd rather focus on losing some weight right now, it doesnโt and ๐ฌ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐งโ๐ญ mean youโll be dieting forever. โฃ
โฃ
We can do both. โฃ
We can have our cake and eat it too. โฃ
โฃ
Just not at the same time.
